Hannah!
Lydia and Grace, dressed alike, bounded towards Hannah and took their seats beside her.
Carrying their bags, Brayden followed suit, settling across from them.
Grace, gripping Hannahs arm, scanned the area, puzzled. Wheres my brother? she asked.
Hannah hadnt reached out to Bryson.
Perhaps he hadnt told her about his departure because he was tied up with something. Consequently, Hannah chose not to disturb him at that moment.
Instead, she quickly found a reason and said in a dismissive tone, Lets have a girls day out shopping.
Sure, Grace agreed without hesitation, nodding, Youre right. My brother isnt fond of shopping.
Across from them, Brayden interjected, Im a guy too. Why should I tag along for shopping?
Lydia shot him a stern look. Whats the problem? Dont you want to accompany me?
Instantly, Braydens demeanor softened, and he flashed a grin at Lydia. Of course not! It would be my pleasure to carry your bags!
Pleased, Lydia responded with a smile, Thats more Like it!

During their shopping trip, Hannah was noticeably distracted.
While the others were busy picking out jewelry, she rarely chimed in, instead sitting quietly, her thoughts elsewhere.
Hannah!

The sound of her name snapped her back to reality.
Lydia extended her hand towards Hannah and inquired, Whats on your mind?
What? Hannahs gaze locked onto Lydias fingers as she asked, Could you repeat what you just asked?
Do you prefer this pink diamond or the sapphire? Lydia questioned, fluttering the two rings on her fingers in front of Hannah.
The pink diamond looks better on you, Hannah responded, eyeing the rings. It matches the dress I designed for you perfectly.
Reflecting on her bespoke dress, Lydia agreed, Youre right, how did I overlook that? Youre so dependable.
She then turned to the saleswoman to have the pink diamond ring boxed.
Spotting Grace browsing curiously nearby, Lydia looked back at Hannah and probed, You seem distracted today. Whats going on?
Its nothing. Just tired, I guess.
